Lyrics

Crawled away in silence, not knowing where to begin
Filling with anguish, anger, and yet, feeling empty within

Calling out for your guidance, but you were as lost as I
Terrified by the absolute truth I saw in your eyes

Why can't I offer answers? Why can't I understand?
Why am I so helpless? How much can I withstand?

Look what you took from me- well this is our release

You wanted everything- taking it piece by piece (*2)

Why do you feel like? Why do you feel like?

Why do you feel like- taking it piece by piece?

I'm running out of reasons, for keeping my mouth shut
The time is ending quickly for goodbye's

Reaching past these limits, I never dreamed could exist
Facing down these feelings, I've tried so hard to resist
